What I'm trying to find out is this. Could LE or my cell provider look back at my phone records/info and be able to tell every place I've been, even when I wasn't making or receiving calls? I don't think so.

Au contraire......well according to this article anyway:

The phones communicate via a nationwide network of nearly 300,000 cell towers and 600,000 micro sites, which perform the same function as towers. When they are turned on, they ping these nodes once every seven seconds or so, registering their locations, usually within a radius of 150 feet. By 2018 new Federal Communications Commission regulations will require that cellphone location information be even more precise: within 50 feet. Newer cellphones also are equipped with GPS technology, which uses satellites to locate the user more precisely than tower signals can. Cellphone companies retain location data for at least a year. AT&T has information going all the way back to 2008.

Sorry if this has been talked about but did anyone else think that kid who had the DUI got a pretty raw deal on the show? Not sure if Dateline should have shown so much about him since he wasn't involved in the case

I feel bad for Adam's in laws. There was no reason to show his sister in law in such a way, from an unseen camera, just as they didn't need to keep plastering the kids face who had nothing to do with it.

Maybe he figured out he could be traced and quit carrying a cell phone? As it gets to be common knowledge, I imagine more people with something to hide will start doing this.

Back when it happened someone mentioned drivers license or other trophies found in his home. Not from the two he confessed to, but other women. Are we just done with that since he confessed, or is it being investigated? I personally think e is a serial killer. No I don't know him at all.
